Do you think such behaviour is correct and please tell if it can create any
problems?
This looks like it could work. There are caveats with using python __del__()
methods and objects involved in cycles. See 'garbage' list docs [1].
It looks like I spoke too fast. When returning an object to Java such as a
custom token stream in an analyzer's tokenStream() method, if the finalizer
wrapper is returned, a type error might be raised. If the wrappee is
returned, then it might get finalized too soon if the wrapper is freed by
python when java is still using the wrappee.
